As a Leadership Partner and the only major contact lens manufacturer supporting the campaign, Alcon works closely with Think About Your Eyes to provide insights and educational information to the public about a number of eye care topics.

Mr Korangy will be responsible for driving the Alcon UK and Ireland business strategy, ensuring accelerated growth in all of Alcon's respective divisions, including surgical and pharmaceuticals, as well as retina and vision care.

Based in Fort Worth, TX (where the company was founded), Alcon makes Opti-Free contact lens solution and the popular glaucoma treatment Travatan Z, but a substantial part of its sales comes from its eye surgery products and devices, too, such as equipment for lens removal and insertion, intraocular lenses to replace the eye's natural lens and sterile surgical kits to streamline surgery.

With governments and auto manufacturers the world over pursuing ways to reduce reliance on crude oil and reduce emissions, one of the favoured current methods--integrating biofuel into the existing fuel market is stimulating the development of new technology such as the new Alcon EXm coil.
